Josh Millburn contends that Hunt’s proposal of parental compromise over veganism is unacceptable on the ground that it overlooks respect for animal rights, which bars compromising.

  • Page 1 the RECENT DEVELOPMENT of PORUGUESE
    THE RECENT DEVELOPMENT OF PORUGUESE LAW IN THE FIELD OF ANIMAL RIGHTS FERNANDO ARAÚJO1 2 I. THE PRESENT LEGAL OUTLOOK To put it mildly, Portugal is not at the forefront of the international struggle for the implementation of animal rights, and only timidly has the Portuguese legislation on animal welfare shown some progress in that direction in the last few years. Portuguese associations for animal welfare are too small, too financially strapped and too dispersed and uncoordinated to perform a sustained role in championing the cause. Their cultural and social visibility is minuscule – and surely disproportionate to the political, legal and judicial victories that, in spite of everything, the generosity and courage of a few activists3 have obtained on an individual basis. Worst of all, some traditions of violence on animals have a long history in Portugal, e.g. bullfights, and seem especially well suited to resist legal changes and to erect political barriers in the foreseeable future. Nevertheless, there are reasons for hope that this bleak outlook will improve. The rural- urban migration over the last century has resulted in the predominance of an urban culture that is becoming more and more sensitive to issues of animal welfare (a sensitivity not immune to the “herding effects” of trends and fads, e.g. the ban on furs in the fashion industry). The growing power of the media, with its consistent denunciations of the more shocking episodes of abuse of non-human animals, both domestically and internationally, has conferred visibility to these issues and put the pressure on politicians to terminate at least the more extreme forms of exploitation and violence.

  • The Politics of Bulls and Bullfights in Contemporary Spain
    SOCIAL THOUGHT & COMMENTARY Torophies and Torphobes: The Politics of Bulls and Bullfights in Contemporary Spain Stanley Brandes University of California, Berkeley Abstract Although the bullfight as a public spectacle extends throughout southwestern Europe and much of Latin America, it attains greatest political, cultural, and symbolic salience in Spain. Yet within Spain today, the bullfight has come under serious attack, from at least three sources: (1) Catalan nationalists, (2) Spaniards who identify with the new Europe, and (3) increasingly vocal animal rights advocates. This article explores the current debate—cultural, political, and ethical—on bulls and bullfighting within the Spanish state, and explores the sources of recent controversy on this issue. [Keywords: Spain, bullfighting, Catalonia, animal rights, public spectacle, nationalism, European Union] 779 Torophies and Torphobes: The Politics of Bulls and Bullfights in Contemporary Spain s is well known, the bullfight as a public spectacle extends through- A out southwestern Europe (e.g., Campbell 1932, Colomb and Thorel 2005, Saumade 1994), particularly southern France, Portugal, and Spain. It is in Spain alone, however, that this custom has attained notable polit- ical, cultural, and symbolic salience. For many Spaniards, the bull is a quasi-sacred creature (Pérez Álvarez 2004), the bullfight a display of exceptional artistry. Tourists consider bullfights virtually synonymous with Spain and flock to these events as a source of exotic entertainment. My impression, in fact, is that bullfighting is even more closely associated with Spanish national identity than baseball is to that of the United States. Garry Marvin puts the matter well when he writes that the cultur- al significance of the bullfight is “suggested by its general popular image as something quintessentially Spanish, by the considerable attention paid to it within Spain, and because of its status as an elaborate and spectacu- lar ritual drama which is staged as an essential part of many important celebrations” (Marvin 1988:xv).

  • 20 May 2015 Thierry Meeùs Owner Mini-Europe Via E-Mail
    20 May 2015 Thierry Meeùs Owner Mini-Europe Via e-mail: [email protected] Dear Mr Meeùs, I am writing on behalf of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) UK and AnimaNaturalis, a Spanish animal rights organisation – along with our hundreds of thousands of supporters throughout Europe – to urge you to update the depiction of Spain in the Mini-Europe park from a bullring to something more representative of modern Spanish culture such as Seville's Plaza de España. Bullfighting is animal abuse, plain and simple. In the ring, the bull has swords plunged into his neck, back and body again and again until blood pours from his wounds and mouth. He is terrified and in excruciating pain. He doesn't want to die, but he can't run away, and soon he won't even be able to stand up. After falling to the floor from exhaustion and massive blood loss, he can only watch as a knife rips into his spinal cord to kill him. This is the experience of bulls killed in Spanish bullfights. Opposition to bullfighting in Spain is already vast and mounting. According to a recent survey, 76 per cent of Spaniards show no interest in bullfights, up from 56 per cent in the '80s, and 76 per cent oppose the use of public funds to support the industry. The entire region of Catalonia is just one of the many locales in Spain that have banned bullfighting for good. The loss-incurring bloodsport of bullfighting could not continue without public subsidies paid by taxpayers.

Received 1 December, 2018; Accepted 11 February, 2019 In the Southern Indian ‘State of Tamil Nadu’, the traditional Jallikattu sport involving young men competing against bulls is described as one of the ancient living sports in the modern era. Based on petitions by animal rights groups, the Supreme Court of India banned the ancient sport of Jallikattu in 2014 on the grounds of animal cruelty. The ban of this traditional sport ignited protests culminating in a large-scale 15-day movement across the state from January 8 to 23, 2017 with a massive mobilization on the world’s second longest beach, the Marina in the state capital of Chennai. Largely propelled by the youths, the ban was perceived as an attack on Tamil culture and identity. The anger was directed at foreign animal rights activism and an unstable political situation gained momentum with media attention. This resulted in the promulgation of a central Act to overturn the ban and facilitate conduct of the sport. This paper examines the role of social media rallying the public and activism against the Jallikattu ban.

  • Insights Mind Maps
    Insights Mind maps Jallikattu protests 1) Introduction Jallikattu is referred as bull taming event typically practiced in Tamil Nadu as a part of Pongal celebrations on Mattu Pongal day It is renowned as an ancient 'sport', believed to have been practised some 2500 years ago. It is controversial because the sport often results in major injuries and even deaths. 2) Arguments in favour of Jallikattu Jallikattu is a key event of Mattu Pongal, essential to preserving the indigenous bull species A way of life in rural, pastoral Tamil Nadu, and is indeed a celebrated feature of Tamil identity cherished in Sangam literary It provides financial support to the rural poor whose livelihood depends on it. Its innumerable references could be found in Dravidian Literature and the indigenous population of Tamilnadu has held this event for years. 3) Arguments against Jallikattu Animal Welfare Board of India and the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) says bulls are subject to cruelty, are physically and mentally tortured for human pleasure The sport is directly in contravention of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960. It is being played in only some of the territories so not the representation of Tamilian culture as a whole. It has been distorted from its earlier Form where only one person per bull was involved but now a hoard of people chase a single bull. There are other possible ways to preserve the native breed. Tradition can't be an excuse for allowing inhuman practices to flourish. Causing pain to animals simply to entertain humans goes against the directive principles that call upon us to protect wildlife.

    2/25/2020 The Fight Against Bullfighting - The Atlantic Subscribe REPORTER'S NOTEBOOK Katharine Schwab 6:00 PM / October 15, 2015 The Fight Against Bullfighting A bullight this month in Seville, Spain (Marcelo del Pozo / Reuters) This week, Global Post took stock of the various campaigns to limit bullfighting in Spain. Madrid’s mayor recently nixed the city’s €61,000 annual subsidy to its prestigious bullfighting school, the Marcial Lalanda, which has been training matadors for nearly 40 years. The reason? Animal rights. The UN Committee on the Rights of the Child may soon intervene in Spain to protect children from attending the traditional bloody sport. The committee has already intervened in Portugal, Mexico, and Colombia. https://www.theatlantic.com/notes/2015/10/bullfightings-ethical-dilemma/410830/ 1/7 2/25/2020 The Fight Against Bullfighting - The Atlantic Speaking of the latter country, Jim Glade recently wrote for us about the blood sport’s declining popularity among Colombians: ARTICLE CONTINUES AFTER ADVERTISEMENT The Colombian case is just one example of a worldwide decline. Spain’s Catalonia region banned bullfights in 2010; Panama did the same in 2012, as did the state of Sonora in Mexico in 2013. Ecuador hasn’t banned fights altogether, but the capital city of Quito no longer permits killing the bull as part of the event. France, too, has stopped short of banning bullfights, but in June a French court ruled that bullfighting should be taken off the country’s cultural-heritage list. How one reader responded to the piece: I am not a bullfighting fan, but I think that it would be more than fair that all people that condemn bullfighting and want to forbid it should first stop eating meat and wearing leather shoes, belts, purses, etc.

    The Changing Place of Animals in Post-Franco Spain with particular reference to Bullfighting, Popular Festivities, and Pet-keeping. Vibeke Hansen A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sociology University of Essex October 2015 Abstract This is a thesis about the changing place of animals in post-Franco Spain, with particular reference to bullfighting, popular festivities, and pet-keeping. The thesis argues that since the ‘transition’ to democracy (1975-1982), which made Spain one of the most liberal social-democratic states in Europe, there have been several notable developments in human-animal relations. In some important respects, Spain has begun to shed its unenviable reputation for cruelty towards animals. Three important changes have occurred. First, bullfighting (corridas) has been banned in the Canary Islands (1991) and in Catalonia (2010). In addition, numerous municipalities have declared themselves against it. Second, although animals are still widely ‘abused’ and killed (often illegally) in local festivities, many have gradually ceased to use live animals, substituting either dead ones or effigies, and those that continue to use animals are subject to increasing legal restrictions. Third, one of the most conspicuous changes has been the growth in popularity of urban pet-keeping, together with the huge expansion of the market for foods, accessories and services - from healthy diets to cemeteries. The thesis shows that the character of these changing human-animal relations, and the resistance
